Things Look Bad For Joakim Noah

It’s not every day that pictures like this pop up:

(Thanks to “Deadspin” for the photos.)

This was apparently taken in March while he was recuperating from an ankle injury. Regardless of what he wanted to buy or what he didn’t buy, the fact is that David Stern will be one unhappy person with respect to these photos. Expect Mr. Noah to get a face full of Stern on this.

His cards have never really taken off, as you can get most of his autographed cards for between $5-$10. Although this seems relatively minor, it’s never good to be bong or pipe shopping during a playoff run. Wonder if this is going to hurt his image at all?
